Salsa is similar to Mambo in that they both have a pattern of six steps danced over eight counts of Music. The dances share many of the same moves. In over eight count of music. In Salsa turns have become an important feature, so the overall look and feel are quite different from those of Mambo. Mambo moves generally forward and backward, whereas, Salsa has more of a side to side feel.
